Football World Cup 2010

Football World Cup is a game with all teams consisting of eleven players each. The game is played on a field approximately 120 yards by 50 yards. Each team has ten field players which are not allowed to use their hands in addition to a goalkeeper who is allowed to use his or her hands. It is important to realize that a goalkeeper can only use his or her hands within the eighteen yard box near the goal. If the goalkeeper decides to play the ball outside of the penalty area then he or she must play the ball with their feet Now that we understand how the game of soccer is played it is time to go over some basic formations.

The most basic formation in Football World Cup that coaches around the world use is called a 4-4-2. You may be wondering what these numbers mean. The first number is the number of defenders that you have, the second number is the number of midfielders that you are going to play with, and the third number is the number of attacking forwards that you are going to have.

This formation is a basic formation that will give you a sound defense as well as two
forwards that can be used as an attacking option. The 4-4-2 formation is a more defensive formation compared to the 4-4-3 formation. The 4-4-3 formation is more of an attacking formation because it sacrifices a midfielder and moves him to the attacking position. This provides for a formation that is more attack minded and will generally be more successful in scoring goals. There are tons of different formations in Soccer World Cup that world class coaches use for a variety of different reasons. The type of formation that your team uses varies depending on the type of players that you have on your team or even the type of team that you are playing against. It is important to completely research each type of formation so you can determine what type of formation is right for your team in every situation.
